February sent me spinning...

I was inspired to get spinning and within a day, this rather lovely rainbow of yarn was finished. It's not perfect but I like the uneven effect and I'm going to pretend it was done on purpose...

It uses very different colours to my usual palette, a mixture of some hand-dyed green, some indigo from here and a skein of fleece bought from Fiberspates a long, long time ago. It seems Autumnal rather than Spring like but I'll make up for that with my next lot.

I enjoyed it so much that I phoned the Guild and went back to join in on Saturday. I hadn't realised how much I had missed them in the busy days of my life but now I am determined to get there as often as I can...

The two skeins above were immediately claimed by my Hubby and this pattern chosen for their display. With two more baskets of prepared wool, ready for me to use as a result of Saturday, I expect to have a few more results of spinning to show you in the next few weeks...

Hello, welcome to my blog, a place I like to record things I have made, things I have seen and the things that help me to enjoy my life. I would love to hear from you by email or in the comments and will try to respond unless life gets in the way (and I have to admit that with 2 boys, 4 chickens, a naughty blue wippet and a husband that works all over the world, life does tend to get in the way quite often!)
